I don't know about RAW23, but I wouldn't like to publicly show support for a stranger when I can't guarantee that they will do what they say they will. This kind of thing is pretty easy to game for those even slightly determined.

fair enough point. I didnt think it would even get to that layer of security, making an eve online JPEG is gonna be hard enough for these potatoes.

ill just pledge it randomly (not at all :p)

Had to go to evesearch to see what was going on here!

But, yeah, as Liz said a formal structure like that would make me feel morally obligated on the borrower's behalf. On the one or two occasions I have gone beyond due diligence and spoken emphatically for someone who has defaulted (the one I remember was an RL based default rather than a scam) I have felt obliged to cover the loss myself. So, I wouldn't be keen on giving indirect vouches.

That said, I am thinking of getting back in the investing game while life is keeping me busy elsewhere, so Jerry would be free to take my own commitment to invest in whatever way he saw fit.

There are two types of EVE player:

those who believe there are two types of EVE player and those who do not.

Alright, I'm desperate enough to do this... so...

Part 1:
Name?: Elgon Smitehand
Nav?: What does this mean.
Can you provide a Currently trading api/dated screenshots of your journals to support your trading activities?: Yes, but most of my ISK doesn't come from station trading specifically.
Reasons for application?: I want some ISK that I can use to invest in my projects.
Age of player, which year did you join? I joined in 2016, This character was made on January 1, 2017.
Why has it come to this? I haven't gotten any other investors.
Do you realise you are roleplaying right now? Life is a roleplay. Money is fake. These words are fake.
What is the reason you chose your "mains" race? I am not a religious fanatic and I heard these guys are progressives.
Are you a potato?, lets face it you are begging for isk..... I am a sweet potato.

Part 2: https://gyazo.com/dcc1e8cac45e25b7ec83caec87d92885 Its pretty lame like this, but I've actually made it in-game and when looking at an incursion fleet, a Maelstrom looks...

Part 3: You've already read my loan post.

I just realized the first child's quote says, "Mom, are we going to what do?" LOL. I also forgot to turn the children's frowns upside down and put "will pledge 20 bill" instead of "Would like pledge 20 bill". You can tell how tired I was when I came up with this.

Also, of course I can't write that well in Paint. I used the text block. Twisted

Very good application, and i appreciate the effort you have gone too.

There are 2 unanswered questions there.

NAV?
API Key?

Nice pic, buts it's "Would Like pledge 20B" (feel free to copy paste it from the source) for your next attempt.

Grants are only given if all the questions are answered in full.

so i'm afraid it;s a no (for now)

I said that in my post above. Blink I'd re-do it to fix it, but I'm not tired or drunk enough to do so....yet. Cool

My entry, for your consideration.

Name:
Chew the Fat

NAV:
Approximately 120,000,000.00 ISK

Can you provide a Currently trading api/dated screenshots of your journals to support your trading activities:
Key ID – 6152629
Verification Code - d3PEx9Q3Q3WcjI8qYdRmPyriR5mgdu8ouERsAcYKApLICwKrseLWXdQClSxBFreh

Reasons for application:
You’ve got to have money to make money and I want to make money (read – I would like more capital to trade with). Oh, and I also want to buy more elaborate Ewok costumes (anatomically correct, of course) to add to my rather sizeable collection.

Age of player, which year did you join:
This toon is about 35 days old, but I joined Eve back in 2015 (have taken a couple very long breaks in between). My main is a Caldari pilot who is focusing on getting gud at PvE (which hopefully in time will help contribute to the trading fund).

Why has it come to this:
My space husband and I just had our third space baby and all of my meager earnings are going to pay for space diapers and space baby space food. With such low capital, my earnings are barely putting space bread on the table (a regular table – we couldn’t afford a space table). At the end of the day, I’m barely keeping up and not able to reinvest any of my profit back into my business.

Do you realise you are roleplaying right now:
Nice try. I roleplay that I’m a human Earthling from time to time, but I’m pretty sure we’re not roleplaying right now…

What is the reason you chose your "mains" race:
Obviously because Caldari sounds like Calamari and Admiral Ackbar and I get hungry when we’re dressed up like Ewoks.

Are you a potato?, lets face it you are begging for isk.....
Potato ain’t a fruit, potato is a root. And Mr. Potato Head is in a ‘tato suit. Therefore, if I am a potato (which I am) then I’m a loaded baked potato because YUM!

I've created a bond, which can be found here!

And the Eve image I created can be found here!

Please consider me for your grant. It really will go a long way in helping me establish a trading character. And thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed! Big smile
